Trump really has the finger on the pulse of America, a nation famous for not wanting a ludicrous abundance of choice of consumer products.

I cannot possibly construct a good argument for giving money to the DSCC after watching this. And part of my job is working to help elect Democrats. Is that a good thing, @kirstengillibrand.bsky.social? Asking for a friend.

If Mr. Schumer will not lead in this moment, it's up to us to fight back against Trump + Elon Musk. We should boycott contributions to Senate Democrats, the DSCC, the DNC, or any other org/committee that supports them until they force Mr. Schumer to step down. Sign the petition. chng.it/mZgjGv9rS9

Ten years ago if you had written a dystopian SF story in which the person in charge of U.S. public health did a press event at a fast food joint to say that fried food is good but measles vaccines cause measles the ghost of Philip K.
